Author Description

The author, in his preface, calls this book a charming treatise on Indian fishing and its object he says is to tell the newcomer to angling about some of the fish that he is likely to meet with. It is written "not for fame not for profit -- it was simply written for the pleasure of writing about angling...". It will remain an all-time favourite with anglers long after the twenty odd varieties of game fish so vividly described by Skene Dhu disappear from the threatened rivers of India.
